The catalogue in 3D
The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
This short documentary follows the fate of public art created in Czechoslovakia between 1968 and 1989. It looks at how the surroundings of these works have changed and searches for the stories behind them and their creators. It points out that among kitsch and tasteless pieces, there are quality works by respected artists.

What happens
Vetřelci a volavky je krátký dokumentární film České televize, který vznikl v roce 2008 za účasti Státního fondu ČR pro podporu a rozvoj české kinematografie. Dokumentární film je zaměřen na současný stav výtvarných uměleckých děl umístěných ve veřejném prostoru v období normalizace v letech 1968–1989, a na to, do jaké míry se proměnilo jejich okolí. Pátrá po historii jednotlivých děl a po osudu jejich tvůrců. Ukazuje, že mezi nevkusnými a kýčovitými výtvory se dá nalézt kvalitní realizace renomovaných tvůrců. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
